Ratings & Reviews Summary
March 22, 2025
My family of 5 hired Troy for a guided fishing trip this morning. We had a fantastic time. While it seemed like the fishing was going to be slow, we ended up going home with a cooler full of filets. My kids (14, 9, & 7 ) really enjoyed their first fishing trip and Troy was very accommodating! We highly recommend and will definitely be back!

We booked with Troy for 2 adults, a 12 year old, and a 13 year old. Communication was great before hand so that we exactly where to go. He was great with the kids. Super helpful, knowledgeable and taught the boys what to do, and helped them out as well when they caught fish. My son wanted Troy to put the bait on the hook because he said he caught more when Troy put it on. He was professional and safety aware. We went out on a windy day and he had to adjust some of his plan for safety. He cleaned the fish and bagged them for us to take home. The boys loved the trip and have already asked to go back....with Troy of course! I highly recommend Troy's Guide Service!
